Interface.so: undefined symbol: sv_nv

The tests are failing because the deprecated C functions were removed in Perl 5.37.1.

The definition of sv_nv in mathoms.c (Perl 5.36) is:

=for apidoc_section $SV
=for apidoc sv_nv

A private implementation of the C<SvNVx> macro for compilers which can't
cope with complex macro expressions.  Always use the macro instead.

=cut
*/

NV
Perl_sv_nv(pTHX_ SV *sv)
{
    PERL_ARGS_ASSERT_SV_NV;

    if (SvNOK(sv))
        return SvNVX(sv);
    return sv_2nv(sv);
}  

I tried to use SvNVX instead of sv_nv and it worked for me.

Indeed. Perl removed sv_nv macro from embed.h in:

    Remove deprecated functions
    
    Most of these have been deprecated for a long time; and we've never
    bothered to follow through in removing them.  This commit does that.

Which happened between Perl v5.37.0 and v5.37.1.
